OK so Ive had this working for a little while and sent it out to a few friends in the community, the only thing I can't get working on this latest version of DreamPi is WRP "Web Rendering Proxy" and dcGmail... they all worked fine on 1.8?? maybe you can help...

• Designed and tested on Raspberry Pi 3B+ probably works on any pi with 1gb or more ram

• DreamPi 1.9 DLE (latest version with daytona fixes and bba mode)

• You can use either HDMI or the screen that sells on aliexpress for under $13 https://www.aliexpress.us/item/2251832718791073.html

• Scrivani's dial-up sound effects when dialing in games type "sudo raspi-config", Select System options and press Enter, Select the Audio option and press Enter, Select your required mode and press Enter to select that mode, Press the right arrow key to exit the options list. Select Finish to exit the configuration tool.

• xlinkkai preinstalled for xbox and other systems just add in a usb2ethernet adapter and type "kaiengine"

• You need a >4GB microSD card

Very nice !

This is actually an excellent little plus.
Would it be possible for you to make a bash script we can run on our existing DreamPis to add this stuff? I'm already using the Web Rendering Proxy addition, but I've also been trying (and failing) to install WebOne on the Pi to add a native proxy to the mix. WRP's a better solution overall, since most modern sites won't run in general on the Dreamcast.

In any case, if this improves enough, I'd love to finally see a DreamPi 2.0 release featuring your upgrades and WRP all rolled into a single package. And if need be, some stuff can be stripped back out and we can still see a DreamPi 1.8 for keeping the older Pi 2 and Pi Zero stable and up-to-date.

That would make it easier for people to get up and running, I also might make it an IMG to flash to an sd card.

I see, cool find https://github.com/atauenis/webone

Updated with WRP built in and 1 liner install script

Very interesting! nice to see some improvements on the Pi, I'll be thinking on interesting things that could be added to it. Keep up the good work!

I'm interested in this, but unfortunately, I'm running into some problems. I was already dealing with issues where trying to static IP wlan0 was forcing all interfaces down, the Raise network interfaces job wasn't working anymore, so I gave in and reflashed DreamPi. Stock 1.7 DLE, followed the commands, now I'm getting xvfb-run Command not found. Attaching the log from journalctl if it can help.

I have no idea why its not setting an IP for you, this script doesn't touch any networking stuff at all.
Also seems like some of the programs failed to install...? Did you expand the file system and update & upgrade with apt?
Do you have a /home/pi/scripts/ folder with the scripts in it? (created by the script)

The networking was a problem for me, once again, I reflashed to stock, so the only relevance is the script.
I use the NOOBS-based Pi image that exists usong PINN, I have closer to 3GB space compared to what it usually has. All the updates installed correctly save for wpa-supplicant which complained about the TLS 1.2 change (irrelevant too because I'm not touching EAP). I can try rerunning your script and logging the results. Yes, there is a scripts folder in home, it's set to executable. I may just try installing something listed in the script manually first and see if it automagically makes the thing work.
